We acknowledge the difficulties and dangers inherent in interpreting results of attitudinal surveys. However, we are not aware of any direct, objective evidence of the impact of teachimig on the quality of the teacher's performance as a practitioner. Thus, we sought whatever evidence was available. Our own experiences indicate that the stimulation of teaching and the repeated questioning by both the teacher and student, which is a part of the teaching process, have led in our programn to a more critical approach to self-education and clinical practice.
